Great? Nah. Good? Sure.

For the music, they wanted to create a retro feel for the movie and that why they used the same tracks for 60s classic.

I see this used a lot as an excuse for the poor music quality, but if they really wanted that feel they wouldn't a) use the actual, aged track recordings, and b) wouldn't have included two incredibly not-retro-but-still-glorious pieces that feeel at total odds with the rest of the soundtrack. They should've re-recorded the pieces to avoid the audio degredation and made the whole soundtrack retro-sounding, or more perferably make more music like You Will Know and Persecution of the Masses.

Awards shouldn't be won for good intentions. They tried to have their cake and eat it, and it took me out of the movie.
